Reverse Mortgages Program

You’ve worked hard for your home – now let your home work for you by taking advantage of your home equity.

Reverse Mortgages, also known as a Home Equity Conversion Mortgage (HECM), gives seniors the ability to use their home’s equity as cash which can provide an improved financial situation by eliminating monthly mortgage payments. This Federally insured loan offers multiple ways to receive the borrower’s funds and gives them the ability to spend the cash as needed. Common uses of Reverse Mortgage income includes paying off debt, assisting with everyday living, covering costly medical bills, home repairs, vacations and more!

With a number of benefits to offer, reverse mortgage programs can be a lifeline for low-income seniors.

At the conclusion of the term of the reverse mortgage contract, some or all of the equity in the property of the reverse mortgage no longer belongs to the borrower. The borrower may need to sell or transfer the property to repay the proceeds of the reverse mortgage from the proceeds of the sale or transfer, or the borrower must repay the reverse mortgage with interest from other assets. The lender will charge an origination fee, a mortgage insurance premium, closing costs, or servicing fees for the reverse mortgage. All or any of these may be added to the balance on the reverse mortgage loan. The balance grows over time, and the lender charges interest on the outstanding loan balance. The borrower retains title to the property that is the subject of the reverse mortgage until the borrower sells or transfers the property. Therefore, this individual is responsible for paying property taxes, insurance, maintenance and related taxes. Failure to pay these amounts may cause the reverse mortgage loan to become immediately due and may subject the property to a tax lien, other encumbrance, or possible foreclosure. Interest on a reverse mortgage is not deductible from income tax returns until all or part of the reverse mortgage loan is repaid.
